16 Fascinating Differences Between Democrats And Republicans

A lot of the results are somewhat predictable, such as the fact
that 89 percent of the respondents still feel "worried" about
their finances, and that rising costs of living and employment
are the top concerns among households.

But we thought this table below was particularly interesting, as
it compares survey results between Democrats and Republicans.

The gist is that basically Republicans feel better about their
finances on every single measure AND Republicans are more
pessimistic about the future.

So for example, a net 21 percent of Republicans say their house
is worth more than they paid for it, compared to a net 2 percent
of Democratic respondents.

On the other hand, Republicans are way more pessimistic on
questions like whether they expect to be "better off" in a year,
or whether their children's generation will be worse.

Our gut tells us that this can basically be explained as:
Republicans are generally better off due to economic reality, but
because of their dislike for the current administration, they are
inclined to think things are getting worse.

Another possibility is just that Republicans feel rich, and
therefore they assume the trend of society is that their wealth
will be leached away by the have-nots.
